© Mike Luckovich I have never heard of a sitting president having to prove he is an American. This nonsense has got to stop. I don’t care if it is motivated by racism or just dislike of his policies. If we don’t stop the personal attacks and stick to the real issues and challenges facing […]
If you look over the evidence, you do have to wonder how he got into all those Ivy League schools: The dean looked over Barack’s transcript and college boards and then suggested in a kindly way that he apply to some less competitive colleges in addition to Columbia. There were no class rankings at his […]
© Pat Oliphant After Republicans worked so hard to let the birther nonsense die down — Karl Rove even tried to blame it on the Democrats, speculating they kept the rumors alive so Republicans would look stupid — Donald Trump stirs up the birther pot again. And that brings out all the wingnuts, including Sarah […]
Obama receives an award for openness, behind closed doors: [From the Daily Show]
© Matt Bors You can see Obama’s speech on Libya here and here. UPDATE: Jon Stewart on Obama’s speech.
(“Hail To The Chief” plays as the President enters.) THE PRESIDENT: Thank you! (Applause.) Can we go with the song that we talked about? (Laughter.) (“Born In The USA” plays.) (Laughter and applause.) THE PRESIDENT: Some things just bear repeating. (Laughter.) Good evening. As we gather here tonight, all across the world a powerful spirit […]
[reprinted from Bullseye Rooster.] “If American workers are being denied their right to organize and collectively bargain, when I’m in the White House, I’ll put on a comfortable pair of shoes myself, I’ll walk on that picket line with you as President of the United States of America.” – Barack Obama, November 2nd, 2007 in […]
A majority of Republicans are not convinced that Obama was born in the United States. In fact, only 28% of Republican voters admit that Obama was born in the US, with 51% saying that he was not, and 21% unsure. Where in the world did they get that crazy idea? But what is really hilarious […]
A new poll from CNN shows that the most important thing they want in a presidential candidate in 2012 is someone who can defeat Obama — even if that candidate disagrees with them on major issues and ideology. I guess I’m happy that Republicans are taking a slight break from ideology, but only so they […]
[This is an excerpt from a post in Fred Wickham’s Bullseye Rooster. Dan is Fred’s brother, and Buzz is his business partner in a small business. I totally agree with this idea.] Two years ago, Dan and Buzz were heartened by the election of Obama. Aside from all the marvelous change he would be bringing […]
The Fox News headline on their website proclaims “Obama Botches Bible Verse at Prayer Breakfast“. They claim that Obama misquoted a familiar Bible verse, and even accompany it with a rather unflattering photo of the president. OMG! Is this proof that Obama isn’t really a Christian? Are conservatives right when they claim he is a […]
This has got to be one of the most juvenile things ever done by Fox News. They took Obama’s State of the Union address and specifically edited it and inserted their own soundtrack of — literally — crickets chirping after Obama makes two slightly humorous comments. Then they make fun of Obama because his jokes […]
